Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny,
ceramic artist and potter in Tucson, Arizona.

I work in the medium of stoneware clay and make hand-built pottery, sculpture, hamsas, ornaments, masks, and a variety of other forms.

Self-taught artist on the autism spectrum. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, horror comedy, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – and all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme. I feel like I'm frantically birthing as many clay monstrosities out into the world as I can.

Fish Pot With Tongue-Stealing Parasite WIP

There is a marine crustacean which parasitizes fish by cutting off blood supply to the fish's tongue until it falls off and then takes the place of the tongue. This is so unique and fascinating and disgusting that I had to incorporate it into pottery.  I was thinking the mouth could be used as an ashtray.
